Hey all, like everybody on here I am keen to get the errata cards and promos but the shipping is scary expensive! So I'm thinking that there must be a good few of us that could bundle together to split the cost and then I will split the order and use internal post at this end. First of all - Paul/Christopher will this be okay with you guys? Second question - if so, who wants in?

Go for it. We'll make it work on this end.

Cheers lad!

Another thought - no reason not to scale this out to the EU as posting a letter is not much more than internal post. I have a non-forumite buddy who will want in so that starts us with two. Hopefully we can get up to ten or so? My thoughts are we split the cost and then it's 60p on top for a stamp (90p for EU), I should be able to provide envelopes at no extra cost!

Good man! I am so totally in...

Dang, I knew I should have waited on buying that errata pack. Well, good luck to you fine folks

Yes, please. I'm in.

One set of errated/promo cards to germany for me :)

I'm wondering the same thing. I have two friends who have the whole kit and they would like the promos too but we're in Canada and we could save big on shipping if you allowed us to bundle it up... If that's ok, is there anything special I must indicate in my order to ensure I'll get three copies of the promo pack along the three orders of the errata?

Ooh! Cheapy-UK-shipping thingy! Yes please! :D

Sounds good! Count me in ^^

I live in Ireland and would be interested in this deal.

EDIT: Now that I think about it, I have a couple of friends who aren't on these forums who would almost certainly be interested in this. Is it OK if I add their names?

Katsue, that's something that one of the >G crew would need to answer.

Chaosmancer, might be worth checking to see if it has already shipped - if not then >G might be able to reverse the transaction and then you can save giving money to Fedex.

[edited to put the key information in the first post]

Also, I note that the shipping to UK is now $11 so this is going to be very reasonable all told! (although I think that I should caveat that the shipping might end up being a bit more if the weight of the package goes up - so this is just our first estimate)

Matchstickman regrets having bought the copy of the EE from Leisure Games when the >G crew were in the UK, he has no need for the errata cards... but is very tempted to get them again just for the promos! (Can I justify the extravagant purchase of $0.01 for these new promos?!)

I would be totally in, from Spain.

Richard, it's probably going to work out around £1.20 per person so why not?

Any chance someone living in Japan can get in on this?

Is it going to be cheaper to ship from England to Japan than from America to Japan?

Maybe. It looks like England is closer to Japan than the States is. It depends on how much I would have to pay as part of the bundle though.

For me, it depends. I've just asked >G for some replacement cards to, er, replace a few that arrived damaged and hopefully they'll let me add errata and promos onto that to save shipping. (I completely understand if they don't, but it was worth an ask). 

If they say no, I'm in for two sets. 

I’ve already ordere. Thanks for the consideration, though.

Poland is ,ok too? If - yes then i would like to join too :) How much in dollars it would cost for errata + promos + shipping?

$11/# of people taking part (US-UK) + $0.01 (promos) + £0.90 (UK-Poland). So probably somewhere under $2.

Ok then - two orders of awesome please, one for me and one for my friend Schen.

I think this is an awesome idea and I support you guys doing it!

Just a word of warning - if you put more than 2 errata packs in a single shipment, you unfortunately won't be able to get the $11 shipping. However, unless you order hundreds of errata packs, the shipping should stay at the ~$40ish level for FedEx.

For those who may not know, it is possible to use PayPal without anyone covering fees if:

• The source of the funds is a bank account or PayPal balance rather than a credit/debit card
• You choose to send the money as a personal transfer/gift

So by mathematics 40/13 its around 3$(international shipping) + 1.5$(internal shipping) now. Thats 4 and half dollar - still half of normal price and if more people will join it will be even cheaper.

No problem to send to Poland.

Japan is around £3-£4 postage, i'm happy to post out there if it's the best alternative for you guys under the rising sun.

I will weigh out some cards this weekend to confirm the postage costs to all destinations so I can be more precise. I will likely put some bubble wrap or card around them for safe transit and need to check likely packaged weight and size to confirm my estimates are correct!

Thanks Andy! Also, I will not ask for the money until everything has arrived and is ready to ship out - makes it much easier for me to manage that way.

Colour me interested too, for both the promos and the errata cards! Belgium resident and long time fan here... (though I have to admit registering specially for this mighty friendly offer)

Regards,

Gael

Right, I'm definitely in. And I'll check with my friend tomorrow to confirm he wants set too - pretty sure he will but best to check!

Yeah, exactly that.

Count me in (Portugal). Thanks for taking the trouble of doing this!

Count me in!  Another UK resident who's very interested in this.  Many thanks! :)

Thanks for the BGG mail.  Consider me interested in errata and promos.  UK

I'm in! Another UK resident. Vivienne Raper (MisterSugar)

I get that. I can supply names and addresses* if that's any help.

• Well, currently, name and address. One of the friends I talked to might be getting Mr. Chomps, in which case obviously he wouldn't be in.

Victor Mancha is [EU], Spain to be precise Sorry for the confusion.

Oh, wow, what a brilliant idea! Count me in.

I'm in the UK.

Just really wish I could've gotten my hands on those Infernal Relics cards for a reasonable price. Shipping to the UK kills it, unfortunately.

My friend has confirmed, so that's two definites from me. Yay promos!

Hello! What a great initiative!

Lorenzo Crocetti from Italy here. I'd like to get one errata +promo pack too! Please count me in.

Hello all! Though I am a newbie around here, could I get in on this to get the errata'd cards and the promos? I'm in the UK.

Absolutely!

Current Price for me is $11

If you could ship them to me in INT zone 2 that would be great

Sorry, guys, I'm out, you can remove me from the list. I've made an order with other stuff. Good luck! ;)

UK resident here. I'd like two sets please, one for myself & one for my sister.

Many Thanks

[INT]

Sign me up for 3 sets please to Australia

Awesome idea!

Lucky I checked the forum today.

Please put me down for 2 sets please. 1 for me and 1 which will make a great present for a friend

[UK]

If there is still time I'd like to order a second set. I taught how to play to a friend yesterday and he liked the game so much he's gonna get his own copy I plan on giving him the extra set of promos as a present so he will have no other option than to get the expansions if he wants to use them! 

PD: We had one game that took us about 90 minutes. He played The Wraith and Ra and I used Legacy and Tachyon. We fought Citizen Dawn in Megalopolis and, as expected she took us down. Badly ^^u We lost the 4 heroes on the same round after a long, difficult battle, but we had a lot of fun playing ^^

Offer now closed - I am going to place the order tomorrow (Sunday) so still a little room for any latecomers!

Yay!!! :)

Let us know how and when to pay

I will contact everyone with payment details after the parcel arrives - hold tight for more information (and don't expect anything this side of Christmas folks!)

Thank you so much for this Mezike, you rock! :)

And if we got in (as I was only a probably before, and am having net problems so couldn't confirm before the deadline).

You are definitely in the list.

I have ordered a couple of extra packs in case anything gets lost in the post at this end, so there is room for two or three latecomers - although anybody coming in at this point would need to wait for the other individual packages to arrive at their detinations before I would be comfortable sending out the 'standbys'. I have based the price on 35 packs so the costs would be the same as for everybody else.

It is here!

Please can everybody send the appropriate payment to m3zik3 at gmail.

When you send me the payment please make sure that you include your forum username and postal address so that I know who it is from and where it is going!

To save my sanity I will send everything out in batches so please be patient if it takes a few days for me to dispatch.

I will update the first post in this thread when I have received the money and when I have dispatched, so please do not bombard me with emails asking for status updates

Cool :). How do we send you payment, though?

Via PayPal, I assume?

Your choice of Paypal to the dot com email address in my previous post, or by precious gemstones delivered by a team of flying monkeys sprinkling glitter raindrops as they pass overhead.

My monkeys are on their way. 

Payment sent! :D

Ahh okay, I have PayPal (fortunately ;)). I'll be sending mine on Monday, when I get home to my own computer :).

No Glitter Monkeys?   at least, I hope that's raindrops they're sprinkling…

Mezike, if you message me your home address I'll send you a glitter monkey. Really. 

I don't know whether to feel overwhelmed or slightly scared. I'm going to go for a mixture of both.

I was briefly and unrealistically excited when I heard something being pushed through my letterbox this morning. Imagine my disappointment when I discovered it was the Irish Mail on Sunday.

Payment sent :)

Alas, I just ran out of glitter monkeys, so I had to resort to Paypal :(

Thanks for doing this, and to the GtG team for making it possible!

Oh, and Merry XMas y'all. hohoho

Have just sent off my payment :).

Just a quick update before we go into Christmas - I aim to get the first batch away on the 27th, so anyone who has paid by then should receive before the end of the year in the UK, and a few days later in Europe.

I have met you both and you are both awesome. I hope you get to meet some time.

We will pay just after the christmas so in day or two. Happy christmas everyone :)

You guys need to come over again! That's a surefire way to get Silverleaf down to London

Christopher and I are quite intent on returning to the UK at some point, as we had an absolutely fantastic time. Unfortunately, 2014 is going to be a bit tricky, as Essen Spiel and PAX Aus are only a week apart, and we can't afford to spend more than two weeks out of the country in the same month.

I found that a coach is a pretty good way to get Silverleaf down to London. 

Come on Silverleaf, you can do it! Just give it your nbest shot. Take down the other team. Go to LONDON!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, it's a shame those guys down in Australia are going to miss out then

One last post before Christmas: http://www.noradsanta.org/

First batch is away! Tally Ho!

Nice!

You, sir, are a hero, a superhero ^^

I appreciate the sentiment, but all I am doing is a nice favour for cool people who share my love for this hobby and in particular this game; let's reserve the hyperbole for those who are really heroic

Hooray! I'll let you know when I get mine. Thanks for this, Mezike :).

YAY!!! Thank you!:)

Very well. In that case, you, sir, are a Scholar (see what I did there? )

Sorry for the delay, net access on holidays has been limited, payment now sent with address

Cheers!

I arrived home for a brief stay today and waiting for me was a set of super exciting cards!

Thanks once again to the superhero who is Mezike for running this.

Received mine already, hooray! Thanks very much to Mezike for organising this, and for the guys at GTG for making it work!

A bit unfortunate that Tachyon's errata'd cards feature their own grammatical error, but that's no biggie.

Now here's to hoping I get this copy of Infernal Relics…

My cards came today :D.

I had a look at them - unfortunately the errata cards for Fanatic, Ra, and Tachyon are noticeably smaller than the rest of their decks, so I'll jsut continue to use the old cards as I know to remember the errata'd rules anyway.

I had a look at Spite and am thinking he might be...interesting. I'll have to try him out in an actual game, though, as just by reading his card it looks a lot more complicated than I expect it is - I find this stuff easier to understand if I can actually "act it out" rather than just read it.

Had alook at Gloomweaver's front side and thought "Hmm, okay that doesn't look too bad", then turned him over and went "Oh. Maybe not", lol. Looking foward to fighting both these new guys, as well as trying out the promos for Expatriette, Mr Fixer, and Nightmist. Obviously Setback's gonna have to wait.

THEY HAVE COME.

Thanks Mezike! :D

I have mine too! Thanks! :)

Unfortunately I'm also in Team My-errata-cards-are-too-small-for-me-to-use. :(

Thanks Mezike, arrived okay.

I'll post out the rest of these as and when I receive funds, there are a few unclaimed so if there are any latecomers just drop me an email.

Let me add my voice to the chorus and just say: Thank You!  Ireceived my cards today!

And good on you for not trying to make money on this; regrettably there are enough people who do try to make a big buck on promos, though probably not on this forum :-)

Well, I now have my promos, and I'm looking forward to trying them tonight. Thank you, Mezike.

I've just got mine. Thanks, Mezike! ^^

Received my parcel today! Thanks again!

MONEY SENT !!! YEAH!
